Discovering "Tiny Homes" with Dignity Moves
March 2025
We toured the Dignity Moves interim-housing site at 33 Gough St in SF with founder and CEO Elizabeth Fulk, and we were energized by what we saw. Here’s why:
- 70 tiny homes now provide safe, private rooms (each with a lockable door).
- 100+ residents are off the streets and rebuilding their lives in this community.
- Shared amenities & community – residents have clean bathrooms, a dining area, and other communal spaces that foster dignity and connection.
- Fast & Affordable: This project came together lightning-fast and at a fraction of the cost of traditional housing. Each unit cost about $32K to build vs. nearly $1M per unit for typical city-built affordable housing. Units are prefabricated, assembled on site by union labor. Translation: adding more interim-housing communities like 33 Gough can help many more people, much sooner.
D9N4H looks forward to finding ways to partner with Dignity Moves to bring more tiny homes to SF!
Our Affordable Housing 101 event was a huge success!

3300 Mission Street
August 2024
At the August 28th Board of Appeals hearing, 10 members of District 9 Neighbors for Housing spoke in support of the 100% affordable project proposed at 3300 Mission Street, after a neighbor attempted to derail the project through the appeals process. We also mobilized 60 letter writers in support of the 35 unit affordable project slated to be constructed on the site of a building destroyed by fire in 2016. We are happy to report that the appeal was denied, and construction on the project began in November 2024.
3333 Mission Street
June 2024
District 9 Neighbors for Housing attended a neighborhood open house to express support of a 100% affordable housing project planned for 3333 Mission Street. Bernal Heights Housing Corporation Is developing the project, which proposes 70 units for senior households earning between 30-120% of the area’s median income. In addition to the 10 members who attended the open house, D9 Neighbors for Housing also collected 64 signatures on a petition in support of this transformative project.
